The Last Ride Continues: Ceb Registered As Position 4 Player For OG At Riyadh Masters 2023
In a (un)expected turn of events, Sébastien "Ceb" Debs, the two-time The International (TI) winner and OG's trusted stand-in, has once again been enlisted as the position 4 player for the upcoming Riyadh Masters 2023. According to the tournament organizers, Ceb has been listed as position 4 under the team’s roster.
This comes as no surprise to avid followers of OG, as Ceb has proven himself time and again as a reliable substitute, most notably securing a tournament victory with the team at the ESL One Stockholm Major 2022. With his return to the OG lineup, Ceb brings a glimmer of hope for the struggling team, who have recently faced setbacks in their competitive journey.
The OG roster recently moved its Pos 4 player Evgenii "Chu" Makarov back to the assistant-coach position after the end of the Dota Pro Circuit (DPC) Western Europe (WEU) Tour 3: Division I. Following this, the team had not announced the addition of any new players to its lineup to fill in Chu’s position.

Hence OG’s roster for the Riyadh Masters 2023 will be:
Artem "Yuragi" Golubiev (Position 1)
Bozhidar "bzm" Bogdanov (Position 2)
Dmitry "DM" Dorokhin (Position 3)
Sébastien "Ceb" Debs (Position 4)
Tommy "Taiga" Le (Position 5)
The Riyadh Masters 2023 will feature a massive $15 Million USD on the line. The event, which was previously believed to commence on 17th July, will seemingly start 2 days later, according to the organizers.
Additionally, the event has recently revealed the list of 20 teams that will be participating, with a majority being Western European (WEU) teams, with 7 out of the 8 teams from the DPC WEU Tour 3: Division I taking part, apart from Div I Hustlers.
Ceb's return to OG as the position 4 player for Riyadh Masters 2023 has undoubtedly excited many fans around the world. Considering the team’s ability to perform beyond expectations with stand-ins, there is a strong possibility of them coming into the tournament as a dark horse.
